Stage 3 - Stavanger - Ullandhaug

18km | 330m+ · Sunday 5th August

The third and final stage of the inaugural Maserati Haute Route Norway will be a time trial starting in downtown Stavanger. The first part of the stage will feature the same road as the one used in the Tour des Fjords and Hammer Series before passing by Ledaal, the local residence of King Harald V of Norway. Riders will then pass by the DNB Arena before reaching the top of Ullandhaug with its spectacular view across both the ocean, the fjords and mountains.

The next section of road passes near the Swords in Rock commemoration of the battle of Hafrsfjord before reaching the 11% climb up Madlalia. The main challenge of the day appears after 16.5km; a 17% climb up Grisabakken, before a short false flat and another 12% climb to the finish line near Ullandhaugtårnet.

The Haute Route’s objective is to deliver an unparalleled 'professional' experience for amateur cyclists. This means not only delivering first class hospitality and event management, but all the key ingredients that make up the culture and experience of professional road racing.
